The other thing I would level at Escape from L.A. So, I agree, the effects aren't always charming and sometimes a little, bizarrely awful.""It's Always the Story" - The Craft of Carpenter".They both had their strengths and weaknesses. I suppose it’s the old question of whether you like Rio Bravo or El Dorado better? They’re essentially the same movie.
I think some people didn’t like it because they felt it was a remake, not a sequel. It goes deliberately and cheerfully over the top, anchored by Russell's monosyllabic performance, which makes Clint Eastwood sound like Gabby Hayes. “Escape From L.A.” has fun with the whole concept of pictures like itself. Yes, there are laughs in “ Independence Day,” but they're fairly obvious and don't sting. “Escape From L.A.” took some courage for Carpenter, Russell and Hill to make they had to hope that moviegoers would accept a special effects picture with a satiric sense of humor. Utopia: He did it! He shut down the Earth! Snake: Welcome to the human race. For God's sakes, don't do it, Snake! Snake: The name's Plissken. Our technology, our way of life, our entire history.

Malloy: The United States is a non-smoking nation. You know, you're becoming very predictable. Malloy: She didn't know that she had that remote unit in her pocket, now, did she? I was wondering what kind of lame switch you'd try to pull this time, Plissken. That's why the first clip is loaded with blanks. Snake: Good! Malloy: Ha! Figured you might try that, hotshot. Snake: Neither one of you will be there? Malloy: No. Who'll give me the antidote to the virus? Malloy: A medical team will be standing by. Snake: Let's say I come back and I have your black box. Snake! Snake: One question: which one of you assholes gets to die trying to stick me? Malloy: You don't understand. You figure that you inject that shit into me, and under the threat of death, I'll do whatever you say. Malloy: It starts with a slight headache, then turns into a fever that gets worse. For God's sakes, don't do it, Snake! He did it! He shut down the Earth! POTUS: Would you explain to this foot soldier why he's going to do what we tell him to do? Snake: What's he talking about? Malloy: The Plutoxin Seven virus. You push that button, everything we've accomplished for the past 500 years will be finished. Shut down the Third World they lose, you win. He's not even here, he's a hologram! Genetically engineered. Nobody.ĭialogue The United States is a non-smoking nation. By the way, nobody's ever walked off that court alive.
